While it’s normal to find insects, including clusters of ladybugs, at the top of Green Mountain in Boulder, Colorado it’s NOT normal to find so many.

Ladybug Tree

This singular tree, just south of the summit marker, was covered from tip to toe when I hiked up to check them out last Saturday. Entomologists are citing rain as the responsible party for this so-abundant-it-seems-magical event.

This was most certainly a sight to see. Specially since they were Ladybugs. As you said when we were looking at them “they would be a lot different if they were something else… like spiders”.

Isn’t it fantastic when we take the time to look at the microcosm of life? Such miracles await daily!
